Customer interview · Lotts, PrayScreen

In their words

“It definitely helped me sleep at night… I give them a 10 out of 10 for sure.”
Lotanna Ezeike. Founder, PrayScreen
“If you are a consumer mobile app, I would definitely recommend using Plutus Media.”
Lotanna Ezeike. Founder, PrayScreen

The problem

A brand-new app with no audience anywhere.

Why now
Launch had to start from nothing.
What success meant
A store rank and downloads at a cost the founder could keep paying.

Objective

Primary objective

What Plutus did

  1. Creator system

    Recruited and managed creators for a faith audience.

  2. Testing system

    Launched 234 posts across hooks and formats.

  3. Optimization system

    Kept posting the formats that landed.

The learning

The biggest lesson was that a few strong posts can carry a launch: 234 posts averaged about 104K views each. This gave the founder enough confidence to bring his second app, Toxic Traits.
